Federico Moreno Torroba was a Spanish composer, born in Madrid.
Moreno Torroba is often associated with the zarzuela, a traditional Spanish musical form. Directing several opera companies, Moreno Torroba helped introduce the zarzuela to international audiences. However, he is probably best known for his compositions for the classical guitar ^[1], many of which were dedicated to either Maria Angélica Funes or Andrés Segovia.
